As part of the petition campaign initiated by Memur-Sen and Eğitim-Bir-Sen, aimed at protecting the traditional Turkish family structure and securing the freedom to wear headscarves under constitutional guarantee, a stand was set up at the Pamukkale University (PAÜ) Kınıklı Central Campus.

Rector Prof. Dr. Mahmud Güngör visited the stand to show his support and participated in the petition campaign. Emphasizing that protecting the family institution and the freedom to wear headscarves through constitutional measures is an essential necessity, Prof. Dr. Güngör stated that these values are fundamental elements of social life.

Rector Prof. Dr. Güngör: “I hope that many people will contribute to this meaningful campaign by adding their signatures.”

In his speech following his visit to the stand established at PAÜ Kınıklı Central Campus in support of the petition campaign Amend the Constitution, Protect the Family, initiated by Memur-Sen, Rector Prof. Dr. Mahmud Güngör made the following remarks:

"First of all, I would like to thank Memur-Sen and Eğitim-Bir-Sen for drawing attention to such an important issue through this campaign. In our traditions, customs, beliefs, and culture, a family consists of a man and a woman. Therefore, it is of great importance to take the necessary measures to protect the family structure, which forms the foundation of society. Of course, everyone should be able to live as they wish, within a certain framework, upholding moral and ethical values. However, we are a Muslim country, the descendants of a Muslim ancestry. We are the inheritors of a nation that, throughout history, has offered justice, order, and balance to the world. It is our responsibility to keep this heritage alive — through our stance, our appearance, our outlook, and our efforts. I hope that many people will contribute to this meaningful campaign by adding their signatures. May it be beneficial and auspicious.”
